Babies For Sale On eBay

A Chinese internet user set up an online auction for babies on eBay Eachnet, the China arm of C2C internet firm eBay.

The online auction was posted on October 16, offering babies younger than 100 days from central China's Henan Province, one of the country's poorer regions. Baby boys were being sold at a minimum of $3,469.64, while baby girls were being sold at a minimum of $1610.90.

The posting has since been removed, an eBay (China) official said Thursday.
